Wow.. They don't make it easy do they!!
I've been in 4 times to ask for the form for online access. Each time I've been told that they don't know where the forms are.
Went in again today, they gave me the wrong form so had to fill out two forms. Receptionist was really snotty with me about it. She told me I should take the form home and carefully read the Ts & Cs on the back as my GP may not give permission for me to have access!!
I only want to be able to access my test results so I don't have to wait on hold for 15 mins for my results to be read out to me. I don't have time
IT'S 2016 FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, GET WITH THE TIMES!!!
wonder how long it will take them to get back to me, apparently I have to wait for the gp to write to me to let me know.... Well that's a good use of their time!!
Tell them they're sailing very close to the wind in regards to breaking the Data Protection Act.
That usually makes thwm poo their pants - cause it's true and could mean a hefty fine.
Hello Primrose Star, my surgery says they don't allow patients online access. Are you sure there is an obligation? My practice allows you to go in and look at your notes on the screen for a fee of £15 and I suspect they would only allow a very short time. I'd be very pleased if you were right because £15 a time just to see test results is a lot!
I thought that any charge was for paper/printing etc. Why are they charging for allowing you to look at a screen?
Silver_Fairy, and MollieMoo please excuse us conversing in your post, the surgery simply tells me they have a right to charge for viewing.

Thank-you Silver_Fairy, my practice charge £15 for each viewing.
